Here is a Jewelry Q & A for you!

What Is An American-Cut Diamond?
Also known as the American brilliant cut, this is another name for the classic ideal cut. It has proportions and facet angles calculated mathematically by Marcel Tolkowsky in 1919 to produce the maximum brilliance and fire.

Who Was Vincento Perruzzi?
A Venetian lapidary who developed the original brilliant cut around 1700. This 58-facet cut finally released the dazzling fire hidden inside the diamond. It remained a favorite as the cushion-shaped old mine cut until 1919 when the ideal cut appeared.

Congratulations to all the great Moms, Dads and Grads!
